Item Refits
Another round straight from a playtester's notes: your regular items can now be upgraded, the Outfitter explains every stat, and ore is easier to find.
Item refits. Winning a sector at Hazard 2 and Hazard 4 now refits two of your regular items each time: a stronger, renamed version that replaces the original in every Outfitter from then on. Win Scrapline at H2 and Spare Servos (+10% Engineering) becomes Scrapwright Servos (+14% Engineering, +4% Rock Dmg). There are 24 refits across the six sectors, filling the gaps between the H1, H3 and H5 sector gear, so every Hazard you beat in a sector earns something. Refit cards say REFIT in brass, Sector Select shows each belt's gear and refit progress, and the Outfitter's FIELD GUIDE explains them.
Every item says what it does. Highlight an item in the Outfitter and the strip under the cards now explains each of its stats in plain words (Engineering: drone, mine and station damage) and shows where your build lands if you buy it.
Ore is easier to find further out. Rocks used to spawn in the same order every run, so wave 1 always made the same loop around the station. Now every run lays the field out differently, each wave's rocks spread across the near, middle and far rings, and the open edge of the arena gets its fair share of rocks instead of staying empty until late waves.
A hover pad under your pilot. A small lit pad now sits on the floor right under your spacer, breathing with the hover, so you can always see where you are over the field.
